The episode begins with Celia and Allison talking about how Allison almost got kicked off last week. Allison is finding it hard to 'make other faces with her face'. Celia says she just 'thinks of sex' to get a good picture.

Aminat is stressing about her accent that the judges made fun of at last panel.

Tyra Mail! 'A top model knows how to be direct'.

London is talking to Celia about her religion and how she keeps her relationship with God.

The next day the girls arrive at a location and Jay is there; he talks to them about the Creative Director job. The girls have to be a creative director and Ann Shoket is the guest judge from Seventeen Magazine. The winner gets to be in Seventeen Magazine in an editorial.

The girls have to direct each other and they will be paired off. They have to switch after the first challenge.

Allsion and Aminat - Allison is the creative director and she really seems to excel at this and gives direction well.

Natalie and Teyona - Natalie is the creative director of the shoot and she wants Teyona to be walking.

Fo and London - Fo is the creative director and she's having a hard time because she thinks London has put on some weight. London says that she has gained about 10 to 15 pounds since she got here.

Aminat and Natalie - Aminat has a hard time directing Natalie and she does not manage time well.

Aminat is still trying to get Natalie to set and when she walks out she says 'it's not my fault' and Jay doesn't appreciate that; Aminat just argues.

Teyona and Celia - Teyona is the creative director, but Jay needs to ask if Teyona actually did the styling herself.

London and Allison - London is the creative director, but the judges think that she looks too much like London.

Celia and Fo - Celia is the creative director and she is confident and deos a good job.

Jay and Ann critique the girls, and the winner is Teyona! She is pretty excited. She picks Celia and Aminat to be in the shoot with her, but Fo is upset because she thought her and Teyona were good friends.

The photo shoot next - the girls wear cute outfits for their Seventeen editorial.

Tyra Mail 'You haven't had too much R & R, maybe it's time for some R & B'.

Jay arrives at the house for the photo shoot the next morning and the girls are shocked because they are still sleeping. They get hair and make-up at their house. The doorbell rings and it's Ciara! She is going to be in the photo shoot with the girls today. Her advice is to 'have fun'.

They leave the house and go to an old theatre and they are going to be with Ciara onstage. They are going to be a crazed fan wrapped up in her microphone cord.

London is nervous because the costume shows a lot of flesh and she has gained weight. 

Celia does well while London is struggling to deal with her skimpy costume.

London is really stressing out but she tries to be confident. However, Jay notices that she has gained weight and he talks to her about it. London doesn't know what to do because she says she just keeps gaining weight. She doesn't look big at all though, I feel so bad for her.

Teyona is next and she does really well.

Natalie's shoot goes well and she works it.

Fo does well.

Allison is ok, but she's hesitating still. She does so much better after Jay talks to her because she's angry.

Aminat is struggling and she looks too awkward and out of place. She also puts her back to the camera a lot, which is odd.

Back at the house the girls get the last Tyra Mail and they just chill out for the night. Aminat is upset that she did so bad. London is sad about her weight and she gets upset.

Commercial. 

Judging time! Tyra goes over the prizes and the judges.

A half naked male model walks in and kneels down, speaks Portugese and offers her a nut from a tin. It's a Brazil nut! The girls are going to Brazil!! Lots of clapping and screaming!

However they still have to do the judging.

Natalie's photo is good and she stands out but her face is scary.

Aminat's photo is ok, but she looks too confused and too relaxed.

Celia's photo is good and the judges seem to like it.

Teyona's photo is hot and the judges like it enough.

London's photo is trying too hard and she needs to relax her face a bit. Miss Jay asks her what she's eating as well.

Fo's photo is good, the judges really love the angles of it.

Allison's photo is good and the judges like it a lot; lots of tension. Allison puts her foot in it though when she says this was her favourtie photo shoot and Nigel gets upset (what a baby)

Commercial

The judges deliberate, and they still love London, but they don't love Allison very much at all.

The girls come back in and Tyra only has six photos in her hand.

1. Teyona

2. Fo

3. Natalie

4. Celia

5. Allison

London and Aminat are left. Tyra says Aminat is good and strong in person but can't do all modeling. She says London has some great bone structure but it doesn't translate on to camera. The girl that is left is Aminat.

London has to go home. Tyra praises London's face but says she needs more. She has to pack her bags and go home. She says that she's not upset with God though and that she is going to continue modelling.

Next week the girls go to Brazil!! Seems there is some drama in Brazil as the girls gang up on Fo. Tune in next week!
